CREATING TABLATURE
You can order the production of tablature to the notes posted on this website — and only to them – in the categories «Classical Music», «Popular Music», «Guitar Ensembles» (see «Guitarist’s Library»).
The cost of the work is $3 for one name for a solo guitar and for a part of one guitar for guitar ensembles. Prepayment. Details on the page «Information» > «Payment» > «Buy offline» > «How to buy».
CREATING A BACKING TRACK
Do you want to play in an ensemble, but you can’t assemble a team? Order a minus soundtrack (minus the guitar that you would like to play yourself) in mp3 format, and delight yourself and others with the full-fledged sound of the ensemble. The offer applies only to compositions from the categories «Guitar Ensembles» and «Vocals and Guitar» of this website (section «Guitarist’s Library»).
The backing track is also extremely useful for learning ensembles. Judge for yourself … Each member of the group receives his musical part and an audio file (mp3) minus his own part, learns and brings it together with the sound of the resulting audio file, it is possible at a slow playback speed. All that remains is for everyone to get together live (or, alternatively, virtually) to work on the nuances of performance… Comfortable? – Absolutely. And it is advantageous in terms of saving time, because it is no secret that the lion’s share of it when learning an ensemble goes to mixing parties, which will already be completed. Yes, the option is not free, but nerves and time, I think, are more expensive.
The cost of the service is $3 for one name, including ensembles (for this money you will receive a full set of sound files corresponding to the number of guitars in the ensemble). The notes are sold separately (the price list is higher). Prepayment. Details on the page «Information» > «Payment» > «Buy offline» > «How to buy».
And here’s what the sound file looks like minus the guitar responsible for the bass performance (you can listen to the full version in the section «Guitar Ensembles», composition No. 69 – «A song about Bears (A.Zatsepin)». I advise you to pay attention to the empty score at the beginning of the video, which allows you to start playing in time at the beginning of the 1st bar or to count metric fractions if the notes in your party appear later.
